On a recent trip to Columbia, I ordered breakfast delivery from The Devine Cinnamon Roll Deli (you…read morecan order delivery right from the Yelp app--huzzah!). I got their byo breakfast sandwich. For mine, I requested scrambled egg, on a bagel with cheddar and roasted garlic spread. Goodness! What a delight! My sandwich came well packaged for heat retention (and was plenty warm upon delivery). The best part? All of their orders come with a cinnamon roll. What? Listen. Imagine, you're traveling for work and have ordered yourself a breakfast to eat while working. And, you receive it and perched atop your sandwich order, is a warm and ooey gooey cinnamon roll. Are you kidding me? I literally clapped my hands in giddy delight. Thanks Devine. You made my day. Get to it!

Amazing experience! The atmosphere is great, with a cool blue theme and nice wood accents that make…read morethe place feel really inviting. The staff were very friendly and easy to talk to, and I really appreciated how careful they were about peanut allergies when going over the menu. I ordered an Oreo cookie sandwich with Oreo ice cream in the middle and Oreo crumbles as a topping, and it was so good! The ice cream was super creamy, and the cookie was warm, heat-pressed, and delicious. This place completely exceeded my expectations. I'll definitely be coming back, and if you're anywhere near here, you should 100% check it out--it's phenomenal!

Baked Bear was alright. I wouldn't say that it was bad, just maybe not my thing. They had a lot of…read moreitems that looked really sweet, perhaps too much so for my taste buds. For example, the cookies looked so rich that I decided to get a simple cup of ice cream, as I think that if I did try the cookies, I might've thrown up (again, not because they looked bad, but rather because they had a little too much sugar for my liking). My cup of mint chocolate chip ice cream was good, but nothing special. Perhaps it's not really fair for me to rate them too poorly, so I'll just say that it wasn't my cup of tea. However, if you like unique creations that are packed to the brim with sugar, I think you'll like Baked Bear. I guess you just have to try it yourself!

Traveling from Va, after thanksgiving night with the family .I was craving red velvet cake…read more I know big back thoughts but, it was worth it! We were welcomed upon entry! Cakes, cupcakes and cookies were on display. You can sit down if that's your thing. Although, it is pretty small. I tried the butter pound cake it was so moist and dense, exactly what a pound cake should be! My lady got the pound cake and I got the red velvet cake! It was moist and had the perfect amount of cocoa. It was topped with cream cheese icing, the creamy icing was also layered in between the cake! If you're looking for good cake this is the spot.

I ended up getting a few things, a pecan chewie, which was so delicious. The flavor was great and the texture was perfect and soft. I also got a white cake which was made with an apple jelly as opposed to sugar and honestly I had no idea what to expect. Took a bite and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. The cake was moist but not soggy and was sweet but not too sweet. So good. Lastly I got a strawberry cupcake but unfortunately after the other 2 I could not take a bite of anything else. By the time I got to the cupcake it had hardened after sitting for so long and was not really edible. This was obviously not the fault of the baker so I just act as if I didn't get that one. I would really recommend GG's for dessert, it has some great choices and the people are great, and that for me is always a plus.

I went on a weekday morning when it wasn't too packed, and I really enjoyed the authentic deli ambiance, which isn't the easiest thing to find in this neck of the woods. My server (whose name I didn't catch) was such a sweetheart and did an amazing job of making sure my drinks were re-filled, my food was delivered on time, and was proactive in offering me a cup of coffee to-go. After my meal, I enjoyed wandering around the other side of the restaurant for a few minutes, which included a cigar room, an enormous wine cellar, and a host of fine cheeses that I had never heard of before! All-in-all, I really enjoyed The Gourmet Shop, will definitely be back in the future, and would recommend it to anybody in the area who's looking for an authentic deli experience!

While they originated in Philly, they are literally all over NYC and are dangerous when a sweet tooth hits on a late night. I was surprised when I walked into this Columbia, SC location to see how spacious it was and there was actually no one waiting. We waited a few for the young lady to finish what she was doing in the back and realize we were there. I picked an assortment for a 12pack, entered my number for points, tapped to pay and was on my way. Just A Note: If you haven't already, I recommend you get the app and start accumulating those sweet treat points.

Free of charge, she threw in some vegan sugar cookies and vegan gluten free sugar cookies. We had the most wonderful conversation and I could not be happier I ordered from her! The cookies were quickly devoured by everyone and had I not stated they were vegan, no one would have known! So so so delicious! Don't hesitate!

There wasn't anything wrong with it, but I don't think I enjoy rolled ice cream as much as the traditional cup or cone. Nevertheless, I appreciated the opportunity to try it out, and the two (2) staff members who were present were extremely nice and helpful. If rolled ice cream is your thing, they have no shortage of flavors for you to try, as well as a small assortment of other pastries and sweets. I don't know if I'll be back, but I'm glad that I at least stopped in once. I'd recommend others do the same!

I didn't expect it to be a boneless breast. Dark meat would've given it more flavor. The potatoes were flavorful and creamy. The collard greens were too acidic for me. Cornmeal Fried N.C. Catfish (3/5): The catfish wasn't anything special but the grits were very good. Lots of flavor and good texture. The collard greens were too acidic for me. Fried Adluh Yellow Grit Cakes (3/5): Would've been a lot better if it was fried more and had a crispier exterior. The herb goat cheese was good, but there was a little too much of it. Loved the roasted garlic (great for spreading on the complimentary bread!) Buttermilk Fried Shrimp (2/5): Only came with 4 shrimp. The shrimp itself wasn't very meaty and it also wasn't fried long enough.
